Recently MPs in Parliament increased their own salary. This is unique in the sense that MPs are only people who can increase thier own salary. Parliament has unanimously pased a bill to increase hefty amount in MPs salary and other expenses. Only token opposition was done left parties MPs.
Whenever DA is increased by the Government, it is a ritual to call the increase in DA as 'Additional burden' by Hon. Finance Minister and in every year budget ever Finance Minister rememenrs at least once that how badly economy has been after Fifth Pay Commission, but no a single word is said by anybody when MPs increase their salary. Now Govt. did not mentioned how much burden it cost to the nation.
